+ POSIX threads
+ Ada tasks
+ POSIX threads API support
+ POSIX condition variables
+ POSIX keys (still do not account for data fields)
+ POSIX mutexes
+ POSIX queued signals
+ added macro for extra memory for task stacks
+ default value for CONFIGURE_MAXIMUM_FAKE_ADA_TASKS
+ extra memory for Ada task stacks
code in each BSP's bspstart.c. These changes were:
+ confdefs.h now knows libio's semaphore requirements
+ shared/main.c now copies Configuration to BSP_Configuration
+ shared/main.c fills in the Cpu_table with default values
This removed the need for rtems_libio_config() and the constant
BSP_LIBIO_MAX_FDS in every BSP. Plus now the maximum number of open
files can now be set on the gcc command line.
to multiple. This lets the stack check extension be installed
at system initialization time and avoids the BSP having to
even know about its existence.
for GNAT. It was the number of Ada tasks when in fact the run-time
only required a single key.
Also added the CONFIGURE_MAXIMUM_FAKE_ADA_TASKS constant to account
for resources allocated for each non-Ada task/thread which invokes
the Ada run-time implicitly through an Ada call.
GNU autoconf. This is the first large step in allowing an RTEMS
user to perform a one-tree build (per crossgcc FAQ) including RTEMS
in the build process. With this change RTEMS is configured in
built in the same style as the GNU tools, yet retains the basic
structure of its traditional Makefiles (ala Tony Bennett).
Jiri Gaisler (jgais@wd.estec.esa.nl) deserves (and received)
a big thank you for doing this.
There are still issues to be resolved but as of this commit, all target
which can be built on a linux host have been using a modified version
of the source Jiri submitted. This source was merged and most targets
built in the tree before this commit.
There are some issues which remain to be resolved but they are primarily
related to host OS dependencies, script issues, the use of gawk
for hack_specs, and the dependence on gcc snapshots. These will
be resolved.
the inline implementation. The impetus for this was twofold. First,
it is incorrect to have static inline prototypes when using the macro
implementation. Second, this reduced the number of lines in the include
files seen by rtems.h by about 2000 lines.
Next we restricted visibility for the inline routines to inside the
executive itself EXCEPT for a handful of objects. This reduced the
number of include files included by rtems.h by 40 files and reduced
the lines in the include files seen by rtems.h by about 6000 lines.
In total, these reduced the compile time of the entire RTEMS tree by 20%.
This results in about 8 minutes savings on the SparcStation 10 morgana.
the thread handler (IDLE), MPCI object (SYSI now MP Receive)
and initialize_executive_early (IO initialization). The SYSI task
no longer exists in a single processor configuration. This reduces
single processor Workspace requirements by a TCB and a stack which
is often larger than the minimum stack size. Moving the IO initialization
plus accompanying BSP hooks eliminated an initialization ordering problem
in which a global task could be created before the MPCI was initialized.
initialize_executive_early. This was done to clear up an ordering problem
in which global tasks could be created before the MPCI layer was initialized.
